Prologue

He needed to find Rachel...

Rachel Berry always had a plan. Hell that girl had plan's for her plan's

Since Noah Puckerman and Rachel Berry were eight years old and Noah had stolen his cousin's House of the Dead movie and they watched it in secret in their tree house for the first time, Operation Gruesome Jewsome was born.

**Flash Back**

"Whoa, that was a cool movie, that Karma girl was so kick ass!"

"NOAH, LANGUAGE! It was gross and disturbing Noah, but I agree it was kinda neat. All that stunt work must have been time consuming and hard."

Noah just grunted as he flopped back on the pile of beanbags and pillows, shoveling chips in his mouth. Watching as his best friend put away the DVD in its case and shut off the portable DVD player her dad's had gotten her for chrismakuah . Sometimes he got jealous because Rachel's parents always spoiled her and she always got the best presents, but then he would feel bad for feeling bad because his partner in crime always acted like everything she owned actually belonged to both of them. The young boy smiled to himself then got the girls attention.

"Do you think that could really happen Rae? A zombie attack?"

The tiny brunette turned to look at her could have been twin. "I'm not sure Ark, anything is possible I suppose. Lot's of government's study and partake in biological attacks. Who knows how long ago it all started, but Hitler, for example had many scientist that partook in various types of warfare tactics. Some of them really atrocious and..."

"Um, What?" The boy furrowed his brow. Rachel sighed and tried not to roll her eyes.

Settling down next to her sometimes slow but lovable friend she continued "It means bad Noah, like super super bad... anyway, as i was saying before, atrocious and disturbing, actually a lot like the scientist from that movie were doing I'm guessing. Look how one crazy man tried to wipe out our people, humans are capable of anything good and bad so my daddies always tell me ark."

Noah frowned and nodded. Rae's parents were really smart so they would know. The little girl continued and he was starting to regret asking her anything, but eh he was used to this happening all the time anyway.

"Even without zombie's anything could happen where a person would need to be prepared. Natural disasters and biological warfare for example, as well as many others."

Noah really loved his best friend, they have known each other since the womb practically. The Jewish community was fairly small in their home town, in fact, Rachel was only one of three girls their same age at the synagogue both their families went to and those other two girls were boring at least that's what he thought.

Sure Rae was super tiny and talked an awful lot and used big words that no normal kid their age would, despite that Noah liked Rachel right away. She never made him feel stupid and she always let him hang at her really big house and play with all her stuff. She was really kind and sweet and loyal. And she would always find away to get them outta the trouble Noah would land the pair in. Her big brain and innocent big eyes sure came in handy a lot not to mention the coolest of all SHE COULD FAKE CRY! He really needed to get her to teach him how to do that.

Noah suddenly sat up spilling chips all over himself and his buddy "Ugh Ark be careful!" The boy ignored her yelling and started bouncing in place. Rachel immediately saw the gleam in his eye's and grew weary, lord only knew what crazy antics he was planning for them now.

"We could totally do it star, we could survive no creepies could eat us ever if we start practicing and learn to fight now. Plus you're super smart you could get all the survival planning down."

Rachel started thinking about it, it would likely never happen, but never the less it was prudent for one to always be prepared for any situation according to her daddies, plus it would give them something to do for the rest of the summer and she could work the details out the days Noah was in summer school. Her daddy was always trying to teach her stuff to get by in life, she may only be eight but she already knew basic car care, CPR, water rescues and how to do a few household repairs. Her father's firmly believed that when you stop learning you stop living.

"I suppose I could at least research it some if you would like..." "Yes!" " but you have to help too, not just come around for the fun stuff."

"Yeah sure I have lot's of ideas for cool weapons and stuff, plus you already do all that dancing and monkey stuff" "gymnastics..." Rachel grumbled. "I bet you could totally fight like those people in the movie did, ya know, if you grow a bit more or maybe you could just scurry under their legs" Noah poked Rachel in the tummy and laughed as the tiny girl squirmed away and slapped his hand.

"Well at least my height is good for small spaces unlike your bulky boy self!"

Her best friend was a little on the chubby side but she would never say anything mean to him about it, just try to find sneaky ways for him to play more for exercise and to eat a little better.

"Yeah and you're daddies like G.I. Joe so he can show us all those cool ninja moves and he's been trying to get you to let him teach you all that self defense stuff and be one with your area stuff already. And your Mr. His like Dr. Do-little and a major plant live off the land guy. Aren't they like bad stuff planners already? We could learn lot's of neat stuff Rae Rae, I know you never really wanted to before and you want to be a singer but all this sounds really really fun."

"Dooms day planners, Noah. And you are right, tho a lot of people think my father's are over the top and crazy, I guess I already get picked on a lot because they love each other..."

"People are stupid star, your pops are cool"

"Thank you Noah, besides they won't think that after the end of the world stuff happens and we are left sitting pretty while everyone else is running around like headless chickens"

Noah made clucking noises while Rachel giggled at her silly friend. "Ha! let's do it star-shine! Let's become awesome bad a..er..butt zombie fighter's. Man this is gonna be EPIC! We'll be the gruesome Jewsome. I'll always have your back and you will always have mine, we could handle anything!" The young boy crowed gleefully. Rachel couldn't help but smile at her friend and started to get excited about it all.

"Okay, let's do it" Rachel stated. "Cool, we'll start tomorrow wanna go swimming? Last one in the pool has to do the others chores for the week!" Noah shouted as he was already halfway down the rope ladder.

"Noah Isaiah Puckerman that's cheating!" Rachel huffed as she got to her feet

"Better hurry star shine my rooms really really messy" Noah laughed as he tore off his shirt and ran down the wooded path back to the Berry house hearing his bestie shouting his nickname behind him and scrambling to catch up

** END FLASHBACK**

Well three years later Noah Puckerman decided to become Puck, he stopped hanging out with little Rachel Berry and started his path to popularity.

He started hanging out with other boys his age and joined sports teams, as the years went by he started working out to loose all his baby fat and changed the way he dressed and acted. Other boys would have picked on soft gentle Noah, he needed to be tough and badass if he wanted people to like him. He slowly stopped hanging out with Rachel, coming up with all kinds of reasons to avoid it when his mother would make plans with the Berries.

He loved Rachel, he always had and always would but he needed to fit in if he wanted to look after his mother and his little sister. He was the man of the house and he refused to be a loser like his father was, he couldn't be, and Rachel..

Well Rachel was loud and people thought she was to hyper and just plain odd. She was labeled a loser by the other girls he wanted to notice him. Rachel was a freak to them, always picked on for her crazy family life and her songstress dreams. But deep down Puck knew how amazingly badass his former J.A.P. and her dad's were and he knew if anyone could survive this epically fucked up situation it would be her.

He just hoped the two and a half years of "training" (sadly he just goofed around and pretended to be a ninja or a pirate or anything else that came to mind) he did with her and her father's would be enough to keep him and his friends safe until he could meet up with her.

Noah prayed to god that Rachel would be able to put the last few years of neglect and torment behind her.

He had told Finn he joined glee club because they were bros and bros did shit together, but really Finn was an asshole. His nice guy image was an act and Puck could care less about him.

Hell he fucked the dudes girlfriend for Moses sake. No he joined because he missed his tiny star shine and even tho they were no longer friends anymore, he just wanted to be around her. He had missed Rachel's voice and just everything about her. Plus that jackass Hudson had his eyes on Pucks little jewbro and he failed her in the past when he said he would always have her back, but this time he wouldn't even if Rachel never knew what he was doing. He still loved her like a sister, no way would he let that tool get close to his girl.

He missed his best friend plain and simple, and even though he was an idiot for turning his back on her, he hoped she never turned hers on him.

Puck turned, smashing another undead in the head with the baseball bat and tried not to flinch at the cracking, squishy sound it made. He turned his head and watched as Brittany handed Santana another bat and clung to the latina's back. Both keeping an eye out for Quinn, who at the moment was rushing to pick the door lock leading to the hallway the choir room where hopefully the rest of their friends were at. "Come on, Come on" Quinn muttered to herself, she was the best underling Coach Sylvester had and as such the tyrant had passed on a few sneaky skills, one of which Quinn hoped to capitalize on right now.

Getting hit in the back of the head by a basket ball, Puck cursed and glanced over at the only other boy in the gymnasium. Finn who was being his usual useless self, chucking tennis balls, helmets and anything else he could get his hands on at the unfaltering zombie's lumbering towards them. "God damn it Finnces, You're a fucking quarter back where's your aim" Finn just shrugged and hide more behind Puck.

"Q! Hurry the fuck up we gotta find the others and get outta here!" Santana shouted at her best friend, placing Brittany behind her against the wall. "I KNOW! I KNOW! I'm trying the locks being difficult, Coach never uses this door."

Puck took out the zombie in front of him, who he thinks used to be Paul from the track team. Dude was so ripped to shreds by other undead he couldn't be sure, hell half the fuckers face was missing and so was one arm. He watched as Santana quickly took down the last undead in the room, then he and Finn ran over as Quinn got the lock to finally click.

"Good now we head down and save the gang" Finn stated. Puck scoffed, Quinn rolled her eyes and Brittany just buried her head in Santana's shoulder and wrapped an arm around her waist knowing what was coming in 3..2..1.. "We? What we you damn ogre. You didn't do a thing to help you useless bag of f lubber. YOUR THE IDIOT LET THEM IN THE ROOM" The Latina was trying her best to get to the idiot in front of her but Brittany was a lot stronger then she looked. Thanks to years of dance and cheer leading."That was an accident and I helped distract them!" "Dios mio me vova suicidarme si tengo que estar cercade este tontopor mas tiempo."

"San, enough we have to get moving just let it go" Quinn stood up holding open the door. Puck took lead followed by Quinn, Finn and Brittany. Santa being the only other person with a weapon took the rear.

Puck didn't know where all his friend's were but hoped they would be able to find them, all but one tiny diva he really really wished more than anything was with him right now. He didn't know how much longer he could keep from losing his shit in front of the others. The stress about keeping them safe and worry about his mother and little sister were gonna really get to him soon. Why today of all days did Rachel Barbra Berry have to break her perfect attendance record and not be in homeroom.

He needed to find Rachel...

Rachel Berry always had a plan. Hell that girl had plans for her plans...
